    They seem that way don't they... They're not a semi-slick, but look like newer technology than the T1R model. So they probably have a similar spec compound to the T1R, not a soft one like the R888...

    Grip very well in the dry! Even at high speeds, 130 MPH the highest they've been and they stuck brilliantly to the road.
